Alex Cross Must Die
In the thrilling thirty-first instalment of James Patterson's globally bestselling Alex Cross series, Alex Cross Must Die places the iconic detective in the throes of one of his most complex cases yet. Gripping from the first page to the last, this novel pushes Cross to the edge as he races against time to thwart the plans of not one, but two deadly adversaries.
When an American Airlines plane disintegrates in the sky, detectives Alex Cross and John Sampson are the first to respond. What initially seems like a tragic accident soon reveals its sinister underpinnings: the plane was shot down by a rare, stolen machine gun. This discovery sets off a frantic hunt for the operator of the weapon, a list frighteningly short and filled with dangerous individuals. With every tick of the clock, the urgency to apprehend the culprit intensifies.
Simultaneously, the detective duo is pulled into another harrowing investigation. A serial killer dubbed the ‘Dead Hours’ murderer by the media is ambushing young men under cover of darkness, leaving a trail of terror and confusion in his wake. As Cross and Sampson delve deeper, they unearth a malevolent pattern and motive, escalating the stakes even higher.
With two killers on the loose and little time to solve both cases, Cross and Sampson must employ every ounce of their wit, resourcefulness, and experience. This thrilling narrative showcases Patterson's unparalleled ability to weave multiple plotlines into a heart-pounding ride of suspense and intrigue.
